Prevalence of cigarette smoking and attempts to quit in a population-based cohort with spinal cord injury.
Article in Spinal cord, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThe purposes of this study were to assess (i) prevalence of smoking in a population-based cohort of persons with spinal cord injury (SCI), (ii) history of quit attempts and (iii) the relationship between access to health care, socioeconomic status (SES), smoking status and history of quit attempts. STUDY
designCross-sectional study.
settingPopulation-based SCI cohort.
methodsA total of 833 adults with SCI of at least 1-year duration were identified through a population-based surveillance system. Current smoking status, attempts to quit smoking in the past year and seeking professional help to quit smoking were assessed.
resultsOver one-third (35.3%) of the sample were current smokers, of whom 75.4% had ever tried to quit, and of these, only 27.9% had ever sought professional help. Those with lower SES were more likely to be current smokers, as were those with less access to health care. Access to care was positively related to likelihood of having sought professional help.
conclusionsWe found rates of smoking among persons with SCI to be well above national prevalence rates. We also found poorer access to care related to a greater likelihood of being a current smoker, had no association with trying to quit smoking, but decreased likelihood of using cessation support among those who did attempt to quit.
